This has incensed me.
A school in Leytonstone, London has decided to put on a performance of Romeo and Juliet, but in order to coincide with LGBT History Month have reworked the text so it is now Romeo and Julian. Of course an MP has something to say about this. Tory MP Philip Davis has said:

On new year eve a group of us actually watched ‘Most Annoying People of 2008′ and unanimously agreed that the most annoying thing of 2008 was this programme.
As we were celebrating the end of the year I confess that we weren’t paying much attention so when LiLoh and Ronson were mentioned we were too busy [...]

This post is gay.
now admit it to yourself how did you read that last word, did you think this post was homosexual in tone or content or that this post was bad, naff or uncool?

Right, this is the last part until she responds. Or doesn’t as the case may be. I’ve pasted it all below. It has been emailed today at 14:00 (30/07/08) and will be snail mailed later on.
Dear Ms Robinson,
It is not often that I feel motivated to write to a member of parliament, especially not [...]

I’m overwhelmed. We truly have some inciteful and ariticulate people reading our little site. I hate to do ’shout-outs’ but I would like to thank everyone who left a beautifully eloquent comment, and also shout ‘boo’ at you over and over for putting me to shame.
Therefore, I sort of feel inadequate to the task of [...]
